Married Vets Housing from POW Camp?!

Interesting, phone call just now with someone working with the history of the CCC camp in Hamlin group. Apparently several old timers recalled that some of the CCC barracks, which were used in WWII for POWs, were later moved down here to be the married vets housing. I have sent her some images I had of the buildings, and will pursue further.
